Actually, that was not on my TODO. Sure, my other series ([PATCHv2 00/10] Prepare for alternative remote-tracking branch location) builds on top of this one, and changes a lot of the same code, but I considered jh/shorten-refname a good set of changes in its own right, and I didn't want it to be held up by the much longer (and probably much longer-running) series. The strbuf_expand refactoring is nice, but not really necessary until we start using multi-wildcard patterns. ...Johan -- Johan Herland, <jo...@herland.net> www.herland.net -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
